Orange Is the New Black
star Lorraine Toussaint will reportedly return to the show for its third season.
According to TMZ, the actress – who plays villainous Vee – will begin filming scenes for the new run in New York today (October 28).
Fans of the prison comedy-drama will know that Vee was left for dead at the end of the most recent season, after being run over as she tried to escape custody.
It isn’t clear whether Toussaint is back on the show full-time, or whether she will simply appear in a flashback sequence.
The actress is currently starring in new drama Forever, which debuted on US television network ABC in September.
